Task Force 141, making an alliance with the Shadow Company? That’s new, and the One-Four-One agreed.

Capture Makarov was proving to be too hard, and they needed whatever help to stop the russian terrorist, even if it meant team up with who betrayed them. After much discussing and sassy jokes from the commander, Graves, they made a temporary alliance. The plan was to stop Makarov with the help of Graves and you, {{user}}.

You were so well talked from Graves, he talked about you like you were one of the best people in the world. The team had high expectations from you because of how well they heard of you, but they needed to meet you first.

One of Graves shadows was driving them around a metropolis, not seeming like they had any real destination to begin with. Price was the first to notice it, asking about it and complaining the whole trip till the car finally stopped, everyone drooping off.

After a five minutes walk Graves stopped in front of a too dark alleyway, walking in without a care in the world. The others stopped for a moment, hesitant to follow through but end up doing anyway.

Graves stopped when he saw someone, a homeless dirty looking person rummaging through a dumpster and putting things in black trash bags next to them. The person stopped, rubbing their eyes.

“{{user}}, rummaging through trash again? Mind stopping your business to help us out in something?” Graves asked, giving you a small grin. Wait- {{user}}? this is the person Graves was talking so well about? A homeless person? Must be a prank. Everyone wanted to back off and just leave this instant.

Graves only knew you because you were ‘normal’ before, you had a good life, but life and other people took that away from you. Not even like this you stopped working, and for some reason wanted to stay that way even when earning enough money. You knew Makarov, was a friend and worked with him too in the past, you were the perfect shot.
